are going to lock, the ABS system
repeatedly modulates the hydraulic
brake pressure to the wheels.
When you apply your brakes under
conditions which may lock the
wheels, you may hear a “tik-tik’’
sound from the brakes, or feel a cor-
responding sensation in the brake
pedal. This is normal and it means
your ABS is active.
In order to obtain the maximum ben-
efit from your ABS in an emergency
situation, do not attempt to modulate
your brake pressure and do not try to
pump your brakes. Depress your
brake pedal as hard as possible or
as hard as the situation warrants and
allow the ABS to control the force
being delivered to the brakes.

tem, your vehicle still requires suf-
ficient stopping distance. Always
maintain a safe distance from the
vehicle in front of you.

The anti-lock brake system cannot
prevent accidents resulting from
excessive speeds.
The vehicle should be driven at
reduced speeds in the following cir-
cumstances:
•

•
When driving on rough, gravel or
snow-covered roads.
When driving with tire chains
installed.
When driving on roads where the
road surface is pitted or has differ-
ent surface heights.
•
On loose or uneven road surfaces,
operation of the anti-lock brake
system may result in a longer stop-
ping distance than for vehicles
Driving in these conditions increases
the stopping distance for your vehi-
cle.
